I recently finished my Cthulhu Steampunk Armour and took it to Weekend at the Asylum, Lincoln’s annual steampunk festival.
Here’s a video looking at my costume and the weekend itself. I had a victorian wetplate photograph taken as well (shown above) and I videoed some of the process involved in creating that too.
Here’s the second part of my build log covering the creation of the costume.
I’m preparing for the Lincoln Steampunk Asylum and this year round, unlike the last two years, I wanted to do something that doesn’t involve covering my face! I had intended to make something that was nice and comfortable. What I’m working on is a little more comfortable than a full on mask, but as it’s turning out, only by abit 😉
In this video I use a technique called cold casting to build some armour pieces.
